How Christina’s Approaches Work Online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and collaboration. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects what is said, and helps set goals that matter to the client. This approach is useful when someone needs a compassionate space to sort through feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and builds practical strategies to change reactions. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve focus. These techniques can help with emotional regulation and grounding after upsetting experiences.

Choosing the right approach is a joint process. The therapist and client will talk about goals, try techniques, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative work helps tailor sessions to what each person needs and prefers.

Online therapy offers several ways to connect: video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversation and emotion work. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day and need less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging can provide short check-ins or ongoing support between calls. These options make it easier to use therapy consistently while balancing school, work, or caregiving.
